Clean format my harddrive.
I installed ubuntu 6.06 on my Dell Inspiron laptop and it worked fine. For some reason my friend downloaded the latest 8.04 and asked me to upgrade my Ubuntu. Installed the new CD and started the installation. All the initial steps were fine until i reached the screen where it shows a progress bar during installation. It halts at 15% with an error notifying me some file is missing. I assume this is because he may have missed out on some files when downloading from the internet. So i decided to reboot with my original 6.06 Ubuntu CD and it says CRC Error. Rebooted again and then it came up to the screen which gives a menu list. Chose the first option "install ubuntu" and then some errors came up. How do i clean format my harddrive and install Ubuntu 6.06. Look forward to your response.
ps.: I am new to Ubuntu.
